    Nothing fancy just something to get around and go on the occasional trail ,KD max tune, Dry filter aFe intake. TE37X 16×8 -20offset wrapped in 285/75R16 Yokohama Geolandar M/T. Fox 2.0 up front and fox 2.0 with resi non-adjustable.
    Today my rear shock broke, the top stud broke clean off the top, looking to see if someone in SoCal riverside area preferably has a stock shock I can borrow or even buy, meanwhile I figure out what to do about the broken one, don't want to run shackles the ride sucks and don't want to damage any other suspension components. Please let me know what's out there thank you all.

    I have a set of these Fox shocks in the garage ready to install if Icon ever decides to start making RXT leaf packs again.

    Do you know why they broke?

    Are you running extended Bump Stops?

    Wow, I was really hoping to upgrade to the FOX 2.5's in the front. Seeing a broken shock makes me think it was overtightened. Supposedly they have a nice ride. Anybody have any input?
    Im curious if these would be better (https://bilsteinlifts.com/shop/toyo...ion-kit-0-6-2-5-lift-toyota-tacoma-2005-2015/)

    I want to upgrade my Old Man Emu fronts (90021 shocks with the medium spring) to something else as they have too much vibe transmission from the ground...I feel everything and only running 265/75 r16 Falken AT3's
    I do have alo-pro bumper, winch and sliders btw

    No shocks should just break with normal driving. You could have the wrong size shock, or your stock bump stops are too short.

    What type of lift are you running in the back?
